tx_timeout doesn't always lead to a cmd_timeout. There are

mac80211 tells us when we need to dump the frames from the

Being able to differentiate between the different cases

When the station is removed, mac80211 asks to flush and
removes the station right away.
This allows to avoid a case where we still have frames in
AGG queues, but the station has been remove already.

Note that we can have frames on the shared queues, but this
is not a problem: the station in the fw will be kept until
all the frames on the shared queues have been drained.
